This team has too many great guys and good professionals to go through so much negativity. As my friend, I would still love for him to be here, but I don't miss the negativity. Being around a positive environment, everybody plays better and everybody works better.

I'm getting a lot more touches now. I just try to make plays for my team. I have to be more aggressive because I can score and I'll also get shots for other people. That's a big part of it.

As bad as I disagreed on stuff, I wanted to get a technical foul, but I didn't. When guys on the team see me get technical fouls, it tends to trickle down to the team. I just took it and dealt with it.
